However I like the "new" ped better, My experience with Bolio blood is that it's a good and all around decent blood. When crossed to the Eli/carver crosses it becomes great. Then building your line on that great cross can't go wrong. As you sad, it's 2 bad you didn't get to know this earlier. But you have done great anyways. Remember this is an observation from my experience with Bolio blood. Not a generalization. Some of the most devastating dogs I've seen came from Bolio-Eli/Carver crosses.
